Repairing the clutch and brake control levers and cables
Check the condition of control cables at every service of the motorcycle. Even if a single wire is found
broken or the cable armour is damaged (seizing, extension, etc.) replace the cable. If the end ball of the
control cable is disturbed (the tip slips off the cable), solder a new tip on, spreading the cable end wires
apart prior to soldering to ensure the wires jam into the hole. The handlebar control lever pivots should
be tightened only far enough to ensure their free pivoting without excessive play.
When inspecting the handlebar, pay special attention to the brackets which fasten it to the fork cross-
piece and check the bracket end for cracks. Replace the brackets, if defects are revealed. To remove
the brackets from the tube, unscrew the nut or the bolt fastening the handlebar tube to the brackets,
insert a wedge (such as a screwdriver tip) into the slot and spread the bracket slot to permit taking the
bracket from the tube.
Speedometer
The speedometer scale is illuminated with two lamps. The speedometer is driven by the main shaft of
the gearbox via a flexible cable.
Every 10,000 km , add five or six drops of oil into the union butt end to lubricate the speedometer axle.
Lubricate the flexible cable with speedometer cable lubricant.
